Punished.

The viscious practice of falsely
reporting ones self mot in" to an
unwelcome caller occasionly meets
an unexpected rebuke An instance
is here recorded Of II young man
who added unflithfulness to his
falsehood, and became the victim
Of a Jest that had all the severity of
deserved justice. To find the plain
truth posted in place Of lis lying
placard should have been Il healthy
hint to him, and we hope lie took it
as such.
a certain lawyers clerk had been
in the habit Of taking an afternoon
nap in the absence of the boss. On
such occasions he had been in the
habit Of putting up his placard on
the front door, Gone to the Clerk s
Office"
Some young men who had wit
messed the performance concluded
to play joke at his expense. Ac-
cordingly they watched him last
Saturday afternoon, and after he
had put up the usual sign and du-
tifully laid down on his lounge,
they removed it and put the follow
ing in its place:
"On the lounge in the back-room
asleep-don't knock-will wake up
at five o'clock. Call then
A number of persons read the
notice, and went away wondering
what the country could be coming
to when Il young man could thus
fritteraway time: At last the young
man awoke from his dreams, and
his feeling may be imagined when
he saw what had been done.

A Deer Story.


The following story relates to
West Virginia; the particular scene
of the hunt being ON Blackwnter
River In that region are several
new towns, one of which is named
Davis" in honor Of one of the ex-
United States Senators from West
Virgininia. Deer hunting ON the
Blackwater differs from the sport in
many other parts OF the country. 1t
is the general custom in Pike and
Potter counties, Pennsylvania, when
hunting with dogs, to put the hunter
upon runaways, and when the deer
passes, the sportsman gets IL shot.
The deer docs also, if the hunter is
II good marksman. On the Black
water the deer, when pursued by the
dogs, takes to the water to throw off
the scent, and the sportsmen are
posted at such points along tie
stream MS experience has proven the
animal is most likely either tn cross
or swim past to escape danger. The
hunter who favors the reader with
the incident, was posted ut one of
those points This hunter writes:
Two hours passed at the big bend
without the sign of IL deer. A mink
played incautiously around large
rock in the center of the stream, and
trout occasionally leaped from the
water and fell back with gentle
splash. With ears strained and gun
cooked, listened intcntly. Far off
down the stream, in the neighbour
hood of the birchcs, | heard the
faint report of Il rifle. Then for
another hour all was still. Once
heard the bayng of the hounds.
The chorus then gradually died
away, and threw my breech-load-
er upon the ground in an, agony OF
despair Again, far off to the left,
the dogs were heard this time dis
tinctly, approaching the river The
report of the muslltt from Accomac
echoed through the wood. and every
hope was instantly dashed to the
ground. The dogs were still upon
the trail, however, us their bavin4
proved, and glanccs up and down
the river with nervous anxiety. TIVE
wild ducks, apparently, were coming
down the stream, swimming rapidly
side by side, | determined to gct
feathers if fur was denied, and wait
ed cautiously for them to cont
within range. The closer the ducks
came the less they appeared to re-
semblc water fowl, and when 4
shallow place in the stream was
reached, the two horns of pike
buck were lifted from the spot where
l had imagined the necks of tive
ducks protruded. Cautiously the
deer lifted his head from the water
glanced at the laurel-fringed banks
of the stream paused for Il momen
to listen to the distant baying of thu
hunds, and, carefully lifting his feet
waded over the shallow place, anC
going again into the deep water
sunk his head so that only the nos,
and the horns could be seen abov,
the surface. On he came, unit
within twenty yards of my stand
when l saluted the gentleman will
eight buckshot from the right barrel
His head sank under the stream, re
appeared, and he started for th
opposite bank. As he arose from
the water, he received charge from
the second barrel, and fell dca,
upon the shore.-Er
